HPE Aruba Networking CX 5420 modulo 8p SFP+ 1G/10G LRM 16000 MB

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 5420 8p SFP+ 1G/10G LRM Module (S0U68A) is a compact, high-performance line card module designed for the CX 5420 modular switch chassis. With 1G/10G SFP+ LRM ports and 16000 MB internal memory, this module supports enterprise access and aggregation use cases where reliable fiber connectivity and predictable performance are required. It is compatible with the HPE Aruba CX 5420 platform and intended for deployments that need flexible port density in a modular 4U chassis.

Advantages

This module provides 1G/10G SFP+ LRM connectivity with a substantial internal buffer (16000 MB) to improve performance under load. As a half-width module for the CX 5420 chassis it enables scalable port expansion while preserving chassis resources. It supports the same AOS-CX software and high-availability features used across the Aruba CX portfolio, allowing consistent management, automation and monitoring with NAE and Central.

Suitable for

• Enterprise campus access and aggregation where fiber 1G/10G LRM ports are needed
• Branch offices requiring modular port growth in an HPE Aruba CX 5420 chassis
• Environments that use AOS-CX, VSX, and centralized management (Aruba Central)
